2025/26 David Moyes

[LinekersLegs]

They’ve got a lot more genuine champions league standard players than us I’ll tell you that

So? That hasn’t helped them a lot this season, especially away from home.

I’d love to hear who the wing backs would be

Well that’s the fun part. McNeil, Mykolenko, Garner, Dibling, Coleman if he gets healthy.

Go into any of the threads on this forum titled by a players name other than maybe4 of them. You all agree the players are rubbish

Many of the players Tarkowski, Mikolenko, o brien, Tim, Barry, Beto, Alcaraz are just very average, it's a fact now - always waiting for things to suddenly "change"

A spoon to a gunfight.

He actually said that?? Yikes!!!

The league is tighter than Kenneth Williams’ backside at the moment!

Yeah, wide open.

What really matters is what the manager says in the dressing room.

It matters to me and the rest of the fan base

I don't know if you have but the way you're speaking posts like this one below it comes across as if you've personally been told Top 10 is a minimum target for the team.




Its a target you made up yourself. You've no clue what the minimum expected by our financial backers is.

So nowhere then?

Thanks.

I agree but for years there has been a massive culture problem here . Unhappy fans are seen as moaners and negative and it’s not been set up to be successful. Didn’t matter who the manager was.

I also suspect some personal relationships between club and media/some fan groups and fans to defend or say little to nothing about this kind of stuff.

It’s annoying and tedious because Monday night was a real nice surprise how their heads never dropped and played well and deserved to win . Once again we revert to type and Hes coming out with small time crap like that again.

You can't underestimate the damage the last 30 years has done to the club. I wish we were in a situation where being 14th in the league and comments like that from Moyes meant the end for the manager, but we're miles away from it being the case.

 

[nick_waters]

But also a very predictable thing for him to be saying.

It's Moyes.

It's as though Kenwright is still his chairman with that defeatist talk

 

[The Littlest Yobo]

That quote about us needing to be at our best against Newcastle is an absolute disgrace. I genuinely got dragged into thinking Moyes had adapted and changed a bit after the United game. Thought he’d actually thought we can attack teams and that the “knife” had been replaced by a “gun” for these types of games. The fact is, he can’t maintain any kind of winning mentality or momentum at all. He is what he is and this club will never move forward as long as we have this “Moyes/Kenwright” plucky, underdog, loser attitude. Absolutely sick of it,

 

[LinekersLegs]

Yeah, I can't get wound up by it. Feels like a "just say something to the media" quote.

But he didn’t have to choose those particular words that reinforce an image that many Evertonians had from his last spell as manager!

He is old enough to know better, it gains him absolutely nothing and costs him goodwill.

 

[davek]

If he’s 14th he’s definitely gone imo,
11th who knows, he’s already making excuses about Newcastle being a better team than us, saying they needed an off night for us to win, even though they got beat at Brentford last game. We need a better mentality from our manager

Itls the fact they've been playing 2 games per week for a while and played in the CL just the other night in France...and it was they who looked like they had the energy levels and we looked like we were flagging.

That's unacceptable. I know we played as 10 men on Monday but we have the resources in the squad to cope with a game 5 days later.

 

[Marcus Kendall]

He actually said that?? Yikes!!!

This is why Moyes can't be the long term solution, his inferiority complex really does put any ambitions of grandeur as a complete non starter

Oh I totally agree, you could see it years ago and I got fed up with it, if it wasn’t local radio and press being on board with it , it was fellow blues. I eventually stopped going to Goodison and just went to aways.

It even got to a point, one match in particular, where I felt I had totally misjudged what I thought Everton was and never went back to Goodison afterwards.

We just beat Manure away with 10 men for most of the game but we are not at Newcastle’s level playing at home. Koff Moyes.

I would have more respect for you if you just said the truth we were terrible tonight because that is why we got thrashed. 3 of their goals were completely avoidable but they could have beaten us blindfolded we were that poor.
